The Sony CX220E mixes power and simplicity to create a reliable, portable family camcorder. Picture life as you see it, in clear, smooth Full High Definition. It’s easy to capture every detail with a wide-angle lens, powerful zoom and the ability to shoot in low light. Along with an 27x optical zoom (32x with digital extension), there’s nothing to get in the way of capturing the moment at parties and sporting events.
Key benefits:
From a bustling market to a crowded dancefloor, be sure to fit everything and everyone you want into your shots. With a wide-angle Vario-Tessar lens by Carl Zeiss, you can capture a larger image area without having to stand back – and without compromising detail.
Bring the world closer without narrowing your field of vision. Take on any shot, from a close-up of faces to a faraway scene, and capture everything in high resolution detail. With a wide-angle lens and up to 32x extended zoom you won’t miss a thing.
Record and play videos in high quality AVCHD (Advanced Video Coding High Definition) or MP4 formats. If you want to upload videos and photos online to Facebook, YouTube or PlayMemories choose MP4, and easily share the enjoyment of life’s special moments.
When you’re filming up close, or shooting action scenes, record high quality images in smooth, sharp detail. It’s all thanks to the 50p progressive shooting mode and its speedy rate of image capture which means you can re-live every detail.
Take the guesswork out of flawless footage. iAuto automatically adjusts settings for the best results, recognising different faces, lighting and scenes such as landscapes.
With a Micro HDMI connection, it’s easy to plug the CX220E into a HD ready TV and play back your memories for an audience.
Using Direct Copy, you can connect directly to an external drive to save and play video and images – no need for a PC.
